chapter 1374


    Yoshua looked at William and asked, "What do you need it for?" "My friend''s kidney is failing," he


    reasoned. "She couldn''t find a suitable kidney, so I-" "You''re crazy!" Yoshua cut him off angrily, "We


    spent so much time and effort inventing this! This is the only artificial kidney in the world. Do you know


    how precious it is!?" 2


    There were other benefits to this invention, too! How could they simply give it away?


    William was taken back by his yelling. Why was he so triggered? "I can pay you how much it’s worth in


    the market," he gently offered.


    Yoshua red at him and growled, "No way. I''m not selling it! Don''t bother me!" 1


    William was curious. "Why?" "This current artificial kidney has been reserved!" snapped Yoshua.


    William frowned. "Reserved?"


    How did he not know?


    "Yes!" Yoshua reaffirmed. "If you need one, invent another one.” "How long does it take?" questioned


    William.


    "One year."


    William frowned. They needed one year to invent it, but it would be toote by the time it was


    completed.


    He wanted to ask if he could have the artificial kidney for the time being, but Yoshua had turned and


    left.


    William rushed over and asked, "Who reserved it?"


    He could speak to this person.


    Yoshua merely looked at him coldly and walked faster. It did not deter William, however, as he


    continued to follow him, fueled with curiosity.


    He saw that Yoshua stopped before a small room outside, where a paralyzed girl was in bed.


    William halted. ''Yoshua, this..." he trailed off gently.


    The girl in bed saw William standing in front of her door, and her eyes seemed to glow.

    Yoshua looked at his granddaughter and said, "She''s my granddaughter, and her name is Annie. She''s


    suffering fromte-stage kidney failure, and her hands and legs were amputated."


    Annie was in bed every day. There was no word to describe it.


    He knew his granddaughter had no zest to live for a long time already, but she was his only


    descendant. He had to make sure she survived.


    It was why he invented this artificial kidney.


    William looked at the girl in bed with sympathy. It made sense why Yoshua spent so much effort


    inventing this artificial kidney. It was all for this girl. 1


    He had no power to take away her right to live on.


    William looked helpless. He thought he could help Charmine, but he was useless...


    "I''ll be heading home then, Yoshua," he finally excused himself.


    Yoshua nodded and went into the kitchen to make lunch for Annie, but as William arrived by the door,


    the girl in bed called out, "Wait..."


    William halted. He turned to look at the girl. "Is there a problem?" ''Yes." Annie looked at him cautiously.


    She was shy as she began, "Mr. Peterson, don''t you remember me?”


    She had met him three years ago when she came to theb with her grandfather. She liked to watch


    him focusing on his work, and she adored his gentle personality.


    William frowned. He looked at this girl carefully and shook his head." Apologies. Have we met before?"


    Annie’s eyes lost their sparkle, though her gentle expression remained.
